is there a word like "derealization" or "depersonalization" but specifically for not experiencing other people as real because i think a lot of people have it and it's upstream of a bunch of stuff

Been struggling to clarify and describe this issue, first serious confrontation with it was the polemics on narcissism from The Last Psychiatrist (https://thelastpsychiatrist.com ). Perhaps you’re looking for the clinical term “mind-blindness”? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind-blindness …
Not as extreme as lack of theory of mind. In my case (as I mentioned elsewhere in the replies) I had a perfectly adequate theory of mind, but everyone felt fictional, like I was living in a movie. Which relates to TLP stuff.

Hm, haven't experienced that myself (mostly just DP/DR symptoms) but I had weird TLP-style negative narcissism in which I assumed I was empathetic and cared about others, but I really was using them as mirrors for my own projections. Hall of mirrors vs movie analogy ahoy?
